Why the royal family escape from Paris during the french revolution?
The French Royal family had a number of reasons for seeking to escape Paris on June 20,1791 during the French Revolution. Firstly, they were under serious risk of physical violence. They had previously been forced to move to Paris by an angry mob that broke into the Palace of Versailles. Even though the Royal Family were under constant guard the guards were responsible to the National Assembly, not to the king. Increasingly, the events of the revolution had made the King feel like a prisoner. Secondly, the King hoped to escape from Paris, the centre of the Revolution, to make contact with the people in the provinces who were more royalist and more suspicious of the motives of the Parisian revolutionaries. In addition, a number of members of the nobility had escaped France in fear of their lives, and were now attempting to get foreign governments to intervene militarily in France and restore Louis as an absolute monarch. Louis hoped to at least make contact with these, even if he did not necessarily agree to the idea of regaining his authority at the hands of foreign troops.
